1 the Senate, that have reached us,11

lie Union is in greater danger than
ver. At the very moment that a I
ttle conciliation and concession'
night have thrown oil on the waves I
-asz v-=. ?
and soeurcd peaco to tlie; country,!
we arc pnined (to use no stronger
word) to see Air. Clay, and the other
friends of the hill, refusing to stand by
My. Foote iu hi* laudable efforts to j
amend the Senate bill, and by their
stubborn resistance to change, ad-'
dinjuj fuel to the flame. The failure
ol Koote's amendment, which was a
small enough^'oncees'ion to .Southern 1
rights, satisfies us that the bill cannot
pas*?for, if Mr. Foole's proposition |
could not pass, liovv could we expect ,
that Mr. King's motion could succeed?
The Senate adjustment bill, j
therefore, we regard as beyond sal-'
\ation. Shall we then infer that no }
measure of conciliation and peace
can succeed, and that this noble Un-:
ion is, consequently, to be riven into |
fragments? \V<* cannot yet bring
our.-elvos to the conclusion, thai the
representatives of the people are so ,
bereft of good sen&c and patriotism
as not to be able to devise some fair (
andjust measure of compromise, that j
will give peace and strength to the i
Union Must history record that the
representatives of the only genuine
Republic in the world have east nn- j
dor iheir leet the noble constitution. |
and that, unable to weather the storm ,
they have abandoned the proud ves-1
r-'el that hears the saercd elements of i
constitutional liberty? VV ill they,
?n their blind madness, crush the j
hopes of all lovers of liberty, and be j
pointed at fis the faithless guardians |
of the temple w hich they themselves
have broken into fragments, through
their own dissensions.

Sot'th Carolina 8 OHrdit in
London.?In looking over the items
>f news brought by (ho steamer At'antic,
we were gratified ta pcrceive
lhat the Honda of tho State of South
Carolina wero in great demand on
the London Sto^k Ktfehange, at the
period of her departure, but that they
could not be obtained.
This intelligence cannot fail of proving
othorwiso than pleasing to our
citizen^, demonstrating nifi it dobs the

fad that fhe I'uUostCpn faience is yet ti
reposed in their honor ajid integrity lc
by the holders of these, bonds, not- t<
withstanding tlie reports that have v
reached them relative to the attempts i tl
to deprive them of the security, on d
ti e faith of Which they lout their 111011- s
1
At moreover confirms what was so ' s
frequently stated during the hut ses- i<
sion of our Legislature, in reply to a
the argumentsthon used bv the Anti-! V
Hank party, to the ellect that nothing l'
w as easier than to offer the money to ; s
the foreign creditors, and that they I
would accept it?that the Eiifflish j u
bond-holders were satisfied with the f\
security as it stood, and would resist c
any attempts to interfere with it. j ?'
The truth ofthe matter is this. En- 1
fflish funds are not profitable as per- 1
nmnerit investments for capitalists,; v
either great or small. Three, and 11
three and a half per cent, per annum s
hold out no inducements. A loan 1
for a long period, properly secured, ' 11
offering live or six per cent., is eager-' >'
ly jumped at. Individuals, of limited *
means, especially, grasp at the opport
unity thereby afforded them of v
increasing their inconies during the j(1
time it has to run, being certain of re- P
obtaining their capital at the expira- ' (!
tion ofthe time f>. greed upon. It i?> v
not likely, then, that they would give 1
ill) what the.v now deem a nrontnl?!<. ?i
and permanent investment. unless j \
they receive an ample equivalent for ''
so tloinrr. Moreover., many dflhell
original bonds issued under the law "
of J838, have been bo settled on ehil- j 1
dren and others, that it would he as !
dilTie.Ult a task to discover the ph'Jos-1
opher's stone, as to obtain tin* eon-1 ><
sent of the English Court of Chance- 1 11
ry to a sale of them.
Iu short, one of the principle i v '?
ducements to lend the money was j ?
the length of time the loan had to |
run, coupled with the fact that the "
profits of a well mnnftged and thri- f"
vinff Institution of the State was h
pleaded for tlie due payment of the ^
principal and intcr/st. This' has been
